Although he has written material for these various groups, THE SURVIVAL OF ST. JOAN is his first major writing venture. GARY RUFFIN, 18, is the youngest Ruffin and was also the last brother to join the group, having played with his own band for four years previously. This is also, along with brother Hank, his first major musical effort. Notes On The The Croup The other two members of Ruffin, along with Hank and Gary, are middle brother Stan Ruffin on drums and Randy Bugg on bass. The group has been together for a little over a year now, but in that short time, they have appeared at the Playwrights Unit in New York, with Steppenwolf in Atlanta (their home base) and in major concerts up and down the Eastern seaboard. The Story Joan of Arc, secretly released from prison by church edict, sees another woman burn in her place. Spirited away in the care of a young farmer, she lives with him for a time until she fiees again to join the army. Scorned by soldiers and populace alike. Joan wanders alone with God, until fina lly she is raped and abandoned in the forest. While the church attempts to find her, some villagers— mistaking her for a witch— capture her and burn her at the stake. ACT I Overture ....................... Survival 1. The Prison ...........
